Loving this diecast room floor circuit memories!
I used to create entire replica grids of various series using the matchbox, corgi, hotwheels, majorette cars that were as close to the real ones as possible.
Touring cars in the 80s was fairly straightforward unless one needed a Colt Starion or BMW 635! I substituted a MB superfast Datsun 280Z for the Colt which obvs faced various scrutineering issues,let alone blatant cheating and the closest bee-em available back then was a Siku 633. Rovers, Capris were no problem although Corgi got them the wrong way round in scale size!!
There were plenty of decent F1 models around too iirc.

Anyway I digress hugely I apologise lol.
